Vauxhall combo

[Den]

Anyone using the newer shaped vauxhall combo as my old van is getting near the end of its life, was considering a transit connect but many have mentioned the wet belt problems that as put my off.
900kg to 1000kg is perfect for my needs as only use 350l maximum nowadays as I have cut back my workload.

The Transit connect L2 240(payload 936kg)doesn't have a wet belt mate. It's just a standard belt.

Have you considered a vw caddy? There was one guy on here who had one that had gone over £300,000 miles with very little trouble. Can`t remember who it was though.

The one that he's buying will have as it'll be at least 10 years old. He's tighter than a fishes bottom

Not considered a caddy might look into one of them.

All the newer from 2017 I think transit connect have wet belts I was told?

Depends on the age of the van, the newer ford's with AdBlue have a wet belt.

It's change them every 4 years I think or 60k mileage some people don't change them as advised.

Id read that the combo and citroen berlingo and fiat doblo and renault kangoo are pretty much the same thing, not sure to be fair. I think it said you get a better price paying for a fiat doblo purely because of the name badge. Im looking at vans too and was leaning to the doblo if cheaper but just as good.
